Anybody Else having problems getting new drivers on with there ins. co.?

seems that over the last year or two my ins. company has really tightened the screws down on who they will and will not write.

Had a guy apply last week and turned his info over to my agent, clean cut, no history of drugs, alcohol, or accidents, over twenty years CDL, has ONE ticket on his record from almost two years ago, yes it was a 72 in a 55 BUT it was also in his personal vehicle.

Ins agent called me today to say they didn't want to write him, just who the F--- do they expect you to be able to hire???

Just wondered if anyone else was feeling this pinch, I would hate to change ins. co. as I have been with them for quite some time.

 

I am located in North Central Kansas 50 miles north of Salina.

 

Yeah Cat, I forgot about that one, they closed that for us two years ago, now the only "rider" can be wife that drives for company or another employee, also NEVER had a pass. claim.

 

I have been with Great West for about ten years or more, they are great with claims or damages, but that does me no good if I don't have anyone who can drive.
